Making Animals

In the small group this morning we chose Knex and built animals. We built a snake, a dinosaur, a butterfly and mousy. We used the cards for some and our imagination for others.

We hope that you like our pictures and that they will give you inspiration!

Mr McCabe, Mrs Sutherland and the team!

Den Building Skills

Who knew how many different skills are needed for den building?

The children learn about teamwork. sharing, vocabulary building, problem solving, risk assessment, time management, listening for instructions and finding resources …… possibly more!

Teddy loves den building as he gets his own harness to swing through the trees. We hope that you enjoy these pictures.

Primary 6S Rugby

The children in Primary 6S have been learning to play tag rugby this term. This week they took part in some games suggested for Scottish Rugby Schools Week. They listened to a player talking about what playing rugby means to him, and the class contributed what they know about playing any sport and what it requires.
